  • Decrypt any Cisco® type-7 passwords for routers and switches

Ever have a network engineer quit without turning over all the current passwords? Need to make a critical IOS update, but the network engineer is on vacation, leaving you without the login and enable passwords for the router? The SolarWinds Router Password Decryption tool can solve that problem in seconds.

Router Password Decryption decrypts any Cisco type-7 passwords for Cisco routers and switches. Simply download the Cisco router config file (or use a backup copy) to obtain the encrypted login and enable passwords. Copy and paste this encrypted string into the Router Password Decryption tool and voila . . . you have the password!
